Roof Rails or no Roof rails

Post by Doug_S2 » Sun Jan 27, 2008 7:47 pm

I'm undecided - i like the clean look of no rails and it is a bit different for an rs4. But then with the big silver wheels and the silver looks good on the car.

I do like them without , i've just refitted mine after doing some paint work & did consider filling the holes and painting over them. But they do look good in silver as they add to the line of the car .g

I was dead set on getting rid but when you see the amount of silver it looks ok - if they where black I would just get rid of them. Wonder if the whistling stops above 180 when you get rid of them!

Personally, when I see an A4 avant with no rails they look a bit odd. Perhaps thats why S4TAN went for the no rails vote!!
